Hot Toys Movie Masterpiece 1/6 Mandarin Figure

[cofphoto]

Wolvie and Thor 2 wouldn't surprise me. They have put on the breaks SO much on Iron Man 3 figures since the movie came out.....who knows what is going on.

It wouldn't shock me to see absolutely nothing from IM3 at SDCC and it wouldn't shock me to see 3-4 figures from IM3.

Them putting on the brakes is precisely why I expect to see some new suits at SDCC. It's been quiet....a little too quiet.

Although after all the Mandarin blow-back, he may just as well have been scrapped. Hope not.

Exactly what Full Metal said. It's been TOO quiet lately with no Iron Man figures being announced. I feel like they're announcing all these other figures from different lines now and when SDCC comes around they'll announce all the IM3 figures they said would come out and more.

This figure would have been a great TF exclusive.....prob see it for next years TF.

My hope is that since the armours were featured so little they've scapped doing over 15 of them. The resources would be better spent on characters from other license that were actually featured

 

[King Kobra]

My hope is that they make all 42 , but as "intervals" (with the othe figures they promised in between)

 

[Khev]

Maybe they are delaying Mandarin so they can add a voice chip featuring his iconic line, "You probably shouldn't go in there for 20 minutes."

If he's going to say that, he has GOT to say "I panicked.....and then I handled it".

The supposed other armors probably was more HT hype.......Red Snapper hasn't sold out so they were just testing the waters. Maybe 1 or 2 more armors but nothing past them. Ludicrous to produce figures based on five seconds of screen time somewhere in the backround.

The funny release to me is the WM2.0, which wasn't even in the movie. I'll be it landed on the cutting room floor. Especially since there is a track on the soundtrack called "War Machine". LOL

No wait...

I still would be interested in this figure. He looked pretty bad *** despite the twist.

 

[Punishment1218]

Something tells me that SS is gonna announce TWD line. Just my opinion! If they do.....CHACHING!

 

[RIDDICK]

WTF was that...

 

[ILuvToyz]

the walking dead?

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

They are actually making him

 

[King Kobra]

It looks really good. (I don't care much about the twist, enjoyed the movie either way).

 

[tommyh84]

Looking good, will be bought

(Nice to see HT springing some surprises at this years SDCC as well unlike last year)

What a disgrace. Great figure of a ridiculous character... what a horrible movie.

Sorry, this movie gets me going!

This thread will forever remain half figure discussion, half movie discussion.

The figure looks fine, I'll buy him if the price is new-reasonable ($225 or less) and the sculpt is good.

I, for one, obviously didn't mind the twist. I wish they could have made him a little less of a moron though
